• Epic adventure in feudal Japan— As the ronin warrior Shiren, you will explore a vision of historic Japan that is beautiful and vibrant. An epic story that begins 1000 years prior takes you through villages and dungeons and places you alongside figures straight out of Japanese mythology.
• Variable challenge— A brand new easy mode lets even newcomers to the genre find a foothold while experienced players will find a more rigorous challenge in Normal mode. Post-game activities will test the most advanced gamer with additional quests, super dungeons, a tournament, and the “ultimate challenge”—the Millennium Dungeon, a pain-staking 1,000 floor dungeon crawl.
• Challenging depth and strategy— Control your time in the dungeons down to the details. Choose direct control over your party members or take advantage of the excellent AI that lets you specify attitude and tendency. Power up equipment through the new Dragon Orb system, and imbue them with special abilities via more than 100 Seals. New Spells allow targeted casting of effects on enemies.

This competent example of the well-worn dungeon-crawling formula lacks the spark of innovation that might have made it something more.

7.0
Shiren is back, in a bigger, slightly better adventure.

7.7
Call it what you will, but Shiren is a huge and challenging (though not impossible) adventure.
